When we're apart
Life is all wrong
Time goes slow
When you're gone.
Nights are long
And days are bleak
I find I am living
Week by week.
Then we meet
I see you again,
Your face to me
Is as soft summer rain.
We both hold back
For a little while,
But all nerves are gone
With the first smile.
When I am with you
It feels so right
It feels so good
When you hold me tight.
It's as though someone else
Held control
The day we first met
And that higher power
Now has our fate set.
I love you babe
For the person you are
In my darkness in you I found
A small shining star.
